New ski/boarding season

[B-well]

Okay folks whats the update plans for peoples this coming season

 

[Hawkstone]

La Plagne in January , flying though. Then sadly that’s probably it as I am having a wrist fusion in Jan/Feb. Hopefully back to twice yearly next season.

So far just a week in St Gervais les bains with my son. Not been there before but it's easy to get to from Geneva airport, just an hour by bus, and I've rented an apartment right next to the main lift. Linked to Megeve so fingers crossed it'll be good.

 

[Ridgeway]

We had a good covering 3wks back, but it only lasted a day or so at 1000m. Missed the chance to get the X skis out although some friends had a nice day on fresh tracks.

Hopefully picking up some ski-rollers this Christmas to be able to keep going no matter what the conditions.

Might do a couple of days in Champerey over the Christmas break, if there’s some snow…..

A work colleagues has gone today for a week in Cervinia, conditions sound good from what he was looking at.

Hopefully a bit of cross country in Northern Germany over xmas but it is looking a bit light at the moment. Might have to head to the alps if there isnt a dump this week.

 

[Nigel P]

Seems the winter weather is arriving a little late this year. Just been working in northern Lapland early November - no snow, first time for many years; was hovering between +3 and -3. But looked today -25! French Alps last week - no snow then, but now getting some. The ski companies must be hoping for a lot of heavy stuff soon.

 

[stevewagner]

Chamonix for me

 

[EuroTrotters]

Considering Otzal for Solden

But might try Somewhere just over the border in Italy if I can find somewhere (Dolomites Maybe)

Depends how my sternum behaves

 

[Lizbiebrowne]

Booked to go to Corvara in March; looking for somewhere for a week in January. Neither trip involves the van though.

[Cozz nd Keith]

Tunnel booked for Friday evening. Staying on a campsite in Montchavin until Boxing Day then moving on probably to Les Menuires

 

[EuroTrotters]

my problem is I don’t have many Schengen days left

 

[Ravelin]

Hoping to sneak in a trip to the Alps this winter. Lots of other 'stuff' happening in our lives though, so no idea when we might do it, nevermind exactly where.

 

[bladerunner]

I hope to have a "greatest hits" trip:

Tunnel 20th Feb
Grubhof 25-28
Wolfergut Zell am See 1st March - 6
Oztal Solden 7-10
Aufenfiel Zillertal 11-17
Garmisch 18-19

I may well be on my own this season so if others are around maybe we could meet.
I'm an experienced skier - but only on piste these days. Like a drink but not into late night binging.

 

[Ridgeway]

Got a light covering at 1000m last night, hopefully it will last and we’ll get some more during the week. Temps are good at least

4 weeks in the Rockies (Colorado) Mid Jan- mid Feb. The altitude and cold weather can take a day or so to get used to, but worth it for the powder. Plus lack of people if you avoid the weekends.

 

[haganap]

Livigno for me.....
Again...
Maybe a stop at Corvara Colfoso for a bit on the milky way..

But why change something that's been perfect for so many years...

Last year I got well in to cross country skiing and I think I'll be doing more this season...

 

[Kayak Kid]

Ski Instructing in Austria ( Innsbruck) in February then organising an annual ski holiday in Italy for around 60 friends, families acquaintances etc - 5 -12 April.

Best of luck in your Operation, hope all goes well and a speedy recovery.

Flying out to St Anton in March. There was snow when we were there in motorhome in September. Not much now though.
Celebrating a friends 75th birthday so could get messy.
Unfortunately that will be it for this season.

2025 is a big year for us, husband will be 70, I'll be 60 and we'll have been married for 25 years. To celebrate, we are off to the Canadian Rockies in March. Have started a 'get ski fit' regime recently . Can't wait to be on the slopes again.
